An independent, family-run hotel in an extended Victorian home, with many impressive original features. Close to Carlisle city center and the M6 motorway.

The young lady who manned the reception was very helpful arranging a late check-out.
Located in Carlisle, 28 miles from Askham Hall, The Fleece at Ruleholme provides accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant.

Great staff. Wonderful facilities. But I the middle of nowhere. Difficult to access if walking Hadrian’s Wall.
Just 6 miles from the historic city of Carlisle, The Crown Hotel is set in the picturesque village of Wetheral.

The staff were amazing! I arrived around 8:30pm with a very large dog who was treated greatly! By the time I was settled in the room with bags, I was a tad late to place a food order, the staff were very helpful and placed an order for me... So thank you very much to them and the kitchen staff as I had traveled for nearly 10 hours with just some snacks! Hotel was lovely, great parking, entrance and room was great for the night too with carpet and a good bathroom and shower.
Nestled amid acres of private woodland and glorious gardens, this magnificent Grade II listed castle is located on the northern edge of the Lake District, surrounded by a golf club.

Huge comfy beds! Friendly check in staff. Excellent location for station. Breakfast was great.

Dalston village is beautiful, but Carlisle Town, what we saw of it was uninspiring and unattractive.
Lots of road works , confusing road systems and busy. Not a bit like the other lake district towns.
Perhaps we hadn't seen the best of it to be fair.

Quite an underrated town.
Quite an underrated town. The castle and cathedral are very interesting, plenty of history to see. I like it most because you can quite easily travel to fantastic locations from all directions; Hadrian's wall & Newcastle to the East, Ribblehead & the Lake district to the South, the scenic Cumbrian coast to the West & the Historic Southern lowlands of Scotland to the North!

Carlisle is so full of history I love the buildings eg the Cathedral, the Castle, the Citadel which is going to transformed into a university campus. The little streets are very interesting could have spent more time exploring.

Convenience as a base to visit more of Cumbria.
Convenience as a base to visit more of Cumbria. If like me you don't drive its good to have a base with plenty of public transport to enable you to see a variety of places. Carlisle itself is easy to walk round, everything within walking distance.

I love Carlisle!
I love Carlisle!
It’s a great town with good shopping, history and nightlife
The bars and restaurants are wonderful and it’s very friendly
There is plenty of parking, it’s compact and interesting
My favourites are The Thin White Duke for drinks/food and Bocata bar for live music, atmosphere and great drinks
Beautifully furnished lounge areas, all spotlessly clean. Excellent choice of menu (4 vegetarian options!) in the bar on Sunday night with great service from Henry. The pool is the best we have found in any hotel, wonderful to have a swim before dinner and also after breakfast next morning. Great breakfast buffet and cooked breakfast choices too, impeccable service from Beppe in the lovely conservatory room. Hotel is one minute from Wetheral station with a ten minute journey hourly to the centre of Carlisle.
a last minute booking as we wanted to start our drive from Scotland to Devon a night earlier. We normally stay at a PI located just off the M6 in Carlisle. on searching for availability this hotel popped up. it was like dream come true. less than 10 minutes off the M6, a very comfortable room with excellent shower. The restaurant on site (under different ownership) was great. we enjoyed a delicious Crab Salad and Lobster & Fries main. very pleasant staff.
Everything you expect from an Ibis. Clean, great value, decent facilities, great breakfasts! Room layout the same as all other Ibis hotels I've stayed in. Staff really helpful and friendly and the hotel is in a fantastic location. Carlisle is a really nice quaint town with lots of nice restaurants. The hotel is a 1 min walk from the train station, a 2 min walk from the town centre, and a 10 min walk to Carlisle United's football stadium.
Perfectly located for central Carlisle. Be aware it is a townhouse so do t expect huge gardens and total silence. It is literally a two minute walk to the Lanes Shopping Centre and central district.
The property is immaculate. With very high quality bathroom products (better than most hotels).
Good Wi-Fi for working on, tea/coffee/cafetière with real coffee in the room. Perfect wake up.
Great breakfast also.
Carlisle Station hotel is ideally located for anyone traveling by train, being right next door to the station. It was spotlessly clean. The room was well appointed with a very comfortable bed. A lovely bonus was the free drink offer, and very ecologically sound idea, for not having the room serviced every day. A really first class hotel.
In theory the location is good, close to the market area. Unfortunately it is located next to several clubs which operate late into the morning. I was there on a weeknight and the music didn’t stop until 2 am.
I would recommend the place if it wasn’t for the noise, but it’s the worst I have ever encountered at any hotel.
Great food in evening, obviously short staffed but the staff there were doing their best. Swimming pool and spa were excellent.
Hotel room was dated but functional.
The pull out bed was a bit disappointing, very uncomfortable.
190 quid for 4 people , 2 rooms with kitchen was pretty good value.
Ideal location, excellent price plus free parking to rear and free wi-fi saves £20 per night. Comfortable beds, good shower, spotless clean and friendly, helpful staff. Train station and plenty of eateries on the doorstep. As a regular visitor to Carlisle this is my first choice of hotel.
Lovely hotel, fabulous staff can see why it’s a wedding venue. Great location for exploring surrounding areas, Carlisle approx 3 miles away and only a couple of junctions up the M6 to Gretna Green. Hotel grounds were amazing but didn’t get the chance to enjoy them due to torrential rain
The location of the hotel is very good, as it's in Carlisle City Centre, and also only a few minutes away from a large supermarket. There was also a very nice breakfast included in the price as well, which meant that the room was very good value for money.
The staff were really helpful and friendly.
The place was nice, amazing location across the road from Carlisle train station and very good value for money.
They were very accommodating for cyclists about our seven bikes into a locked room. Perfect!
Beautiful hotel. Rooms was very comfortable and spacious. Staff was very accommodating and friendly. couldn’t do enough for us. would definitely visit again. Breakfast excellent.
Excellent staff , Breakfast , facilities , location . For the money paid this hotel is Magnificent. Well done , huge part of our group having a wonderful time in Carlisle .
Clean, quiet, and conveniently located for Hadrians Wall or activities in and around Carlisle. Friendly staff and convenient breakfast or packed lunch options for walkers.
